hi
I don’t know, if somebody will find this useful,
or if there are smarter ways to use the command prompt.
But lately I had to use it very often in several folders.
So here’s a small entry for the registry,
which makes life much easier, when there’s need to fire up the command prompt:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Folder\shell\Command Prompt]
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Folder\shell\Command Prompt\Command]
@=”CMD.EXE /K CD %1″
If u add it, u’re able to open the command prompt in the directory,
where it should be - by simply rightclicking a folder and choosing ‘Command Prompt’.
No need to cd-here-cd-there anymore !
And here’s also an add to choose the background and font colour for it:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Command Processor]
“CompletionChar”=dword:00000009
“DefaultColor”=dword:0000003b
“EnableExtensions”=dword:00000001
DefaultColor:
1st byte = Background colour [3]
2nd byte = Font colour [b]
